Assorted Entanglements, Vol. 5

Since meeting in juvie, Minami and Shizuku have been at each other's throats on more than one occasion, but the years have bound them together. When Minami tosses and turns each night, trapped by her trauma even as she dreams, Shizuku steps in.

Then there's Heke and Lala, coworkers who are distant in person but, when behind the avatars, screen names, and UIs of video games, they're thick as thieves. For their relationship to grow, someone will have to muster the courage to propose their first face-to-face meet-up. But without their roles as editor and manga artist acting as protective armour, will this fraught encounter end in tears instead of love?

Assorted Entanglements, Vol. 5 by Eleanor Summers, Elena Pizarro Lanzas, and Mikanuji Mikanuji explores these complex relationships.
